I know. Daley wasnt anywhere near his prime when he took on Mundine so he can be excused. Daley was the better all round player by far. Fitler, Mundine outplayed that overrated ass on many occasions. I wasnt even a big Mundine fan back then but I knew he outplayed Fitler more times than Fitler did him. Mundine was in the athletic go-a-hundred-metres type mold where as Fitler and Daley were brains and braun - two different styles but the Kogarah Lord of the Dance was the man in the late 90s with the exception of Johns of course who was in a another story all together.
Heh, Souths beat North Queensland earlier this year, I guess that makes Joe Williams a better halfback than Johnathan Thurston. :roll:
Mundine: 59 tries, 3 field goals, 244 points, Grand Final wins 0 Fittler: 122 tries, 114 field goals, 526 points, Grand Final wins 2 Daley: 87 tries, 44 field goals, 445 points, Grand Final wins 3 Crunch those stats instead of Mundine's nuts you ***
Also Gav, in league theres 13 players on each team, it's not a one on one dues like in boxing. You could put Andrew Johns, or Darren Lockyer in the #7 jumper for Taree, or Port Macquarie and they would still lose their share of games. It doesn't mean that the other #7 are better than Johns. Also again, in league, the forwards often determine whether or not the halves have a good game, so if Mundine did perform better than Daley, Fittler in the games he came up against him in, then it's probably due to his forwards (Craig Smith ) being able to shut down Daley, etc better than Canberra's forwards being able to shut down Mundine, etc.
It's all a matter of opinion and i just dont think Fitler was all that great like a Lewis, Johns or Daley. Pecks stated above that players need good packs in front of them etc etc and Fitler had that for alot of his career and when you have a great team your stats are healthy aswell. Im not the only one who thinks Freddy was overrated, he did win that award 4 yrs running as voted by his peers Answer to your post - yes I like to **** stir quickly before running off to work :hey
Great call. Its a team sport regardless. Who cares if one team didn't beat another. It doesn't prove if one particular player was better or not. Mundine has the most biased team of nuthuggers on all of ESB... BAR NONE!
yeah, but there are other qualities that make a great player that aren't always visible to the public - Fittler has great leadership qualities, and a charisma that made other players want to follow his lead. Mundine never had any of that, he was only ever in it for his own glory. Besides, Jamie Lyon has just been voted most overrated player - do you agree with that?
Exactly - Mundine had 12 other players to hide his mistakes behind when he played league, except of course for the ones he made in the 99 grand final :yep They were plain to see for anyone watching that game
